Answer: 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is given by :-

$\text{Volume}=\text{Base area* height}$

Given : A toy chest in the shape of a rectangular prism has a volume of 8,640 cubic inches.

The base area of the toy chest is 720 square inches.

Let h be the height of the toy chest, then we have

$8640=720\times h\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=\dfrac{8640}{720}=12$

Hence, the height of the toy chest = 12 inches
